Chapter 171: Allen Cell and Political Marriage [22]171. Allen Cell and Political Marriage [22]
With only a piece of glass between us, I called out to Rain, who was sitting on a pipe bed.
「It’s been a while, Rain.」
He immediately stood up and walked towards me.
「Aa, it’s going to be two months now. I really appreciate what you did for me that time. Thanks to you lifting the『Curse of Rain』, Serena is once again able to live a normal life.」
Serena Glad.
She is the sole survivor of an orphanage that Rain used to run, and also his adopted child.
A few years ago, she suffered from the curse of rain after being attacked by a monster.
It is a fearsome curse where you can only live in a place where it is raining.
Rain created endless rain in the Sunny Land of Dagrio to protect her.
(It’s not the right thing to do, but…)
He was moving under his own justice, with pain in his heart.

I’ve been concerned about her ever since that incident.
「She’s now going to an orphanage in Orest under Clown’s care. I also get to see her several times a month. Look, she brings me letters like this!」
Rain said, and took a number of letters out of the desk drawer.
He looked genuinely happy, as though the evil possessing him was no more.
「I see. That’s good.」
「It’s all thanks to Allen. I can never thank you enough. Truly, I thank you.」he said, and bowed deeply.
「Aa, don’t worry about it.」
After receiving words of gratitude from Rain, I decided to get to the main point.
「Actually, there’s something I really want to ask you. Rain.」
「Me…?」
「Yeah, it’s about the Black Organization.」
「I see, that’s what it’s about. Of course, I don’t mind. It’s a request from Allen, after all. You can ask anything. I’ll tell you everything I know.」he said, encouragingly, with a serious expression.
「Thank you, that would be helpful!」
Then I told him all about our current situation.
A precious friend was forced into a political marriage to stall for a small amount of time.
The other party is Numero Dolan, a noble of the Holy Ronelia Empire.
So, we decided to sneak into the Empire to stop the marriage. And now we’re currently looking for a spot that Dodriel created.
And when I was done with the explanation,
「I see… So you’re trying to help people as always.」
Rain nodded many times over understandingly.
「I understand the situation. But I’m sorry. Even if I’m one of the Thirteen Knights of the Oracle, I am not really informed on the location of spots in each country.」
He shook his head apologetically.
「N-No way…」
My vision shook and my legs felt weak for a moment.
And when my face started turning pale,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm「Well, calm down. I don’t know exactly where it is, but I have an idea of a location where there’s one『certain』spot.」
Rain dished out unbelievable information.
「I-Is that true! Where is it!?」
「It’s at the『Ringard Branch of Phantom Spirit Laboratory』.」
「Phantom Spirit Laboratory…?」
「Aa, yes. It’s not known to the public, but the Black Organization is gathering special spirit cores called『Phantom Spirit』. The lab was designed to start research immediately after capturing the『hosts』scattered around the world. The lab is equipped with a large number of precision equipment and excellent researchers are mobilised there. Shortly after Dodriel learned『Shadow Crossing』, all the labs were installed with a spot which connects directly to the Empire.」
「And where is the laboratory!?」
「I’m sorry, but they didn’t let me know about that. But I think Allen should know this better, no?」Rain said, and for some reason turned his eyes towards Ria.
「It was around August last year, I think. I received information from my men that both Zack Bomber and Thor Sammons succeeded in capturing Ria Vesteria. I also heard that they took Ria to the Orest branch of Phantom Spirit Laboratory to start the research right away.」
At that moment, I, Ria, and Rose, glanced at each other.
「By Phantom Spirit Laboratory… perhaps it’s that place?」
「Yes, there’s no mistaking it! There were a lot of strange machines in that place where I was locked up. Above all, there were a lot of people who looked like researchers!」
「If I remember correctly, it was in a forest in the outskirts of Drestia, the『Merchant City』.」
Now that we’ve finally grasped the location of the spot, we were one step closer to rescuing the president.
